CHRONICLE THE BEST FIGURES PROVE IT.
T ’S so easy these days to “put it all over” the Bend Bulletin that
it seems a shame, almost, to show up the neighboring paper on
our contemporary list of exchanges—and competitors. But the day
when the Bend Bulletin was “ conceded to be the best” in Crook
county is gone. The boastfulness which erstwhile attended upon a
Bulletin "scoop,” or news beat, is no longer in evidence, for today
it is the Laidiaw Chronicle that scores the “ scoops;” yea. Virily,
three to the Bulletin’s one.
Take, for example, the news of the past week. The Chronicle
printed all the important criminal court news from Prineville,
while the B. B. referred only to the Smith arson case, and that
only in a general way. Had Editor Rowe been in Maine he could
have done equally as well. The Chronicle printed the drawing of
jurors in the’Smith case, rehearsed the dismissal of the Lucas-
Wenandy contention at Bend, told of the nolle in the case agains
Henry Turner, of Powell Buttes: stated that E. J. Green, of Ros-
and, was fined $200 for selling liquor unlawfully; printed the pleas
of guilty of T. H. Jones and Earl Rasmussen lo larceny, and of
Joel McCollum and H. C. Grater to gambling, and informed its
growing list of readers that Henry Gilroy, of Ashwood, had de­
faulted his bail of $250. And that’s only one scoop since the B. B.
counted the ballots.
Take, for example, the jury list W hy didn’t the B. B. print
that? It was open to everyone.
Take, for example, the local and personal column. How comes
it that the Chronicle had 50 locals against 28 in the B. B. ? A little
hustling might be the remedy, but the hustle all seems to be in
Laidiaw these days.
And yet notwithstanding this dereliction, the B. B. prints at the
top of page 1 an announcement that Bend * ill some day have
25.000 people!
Why not Sdy 1.000,000? Maybe there were not
enough ciphers in the office to spell a million Well, all the same,
we candidly hope Bend will some day have 2 \000 people, but if it
does we want to reverse the first two figures and give Laidiaw
52.000. Laidiaw has all the advantage of location, and will grow
faster than Bend once this litigation is settled. Those two saw­
mills north of here, about which no mention was made in the B. B.,
will help Laidiaw more than mere guesswork will aid Bend.

And then those Laidiaw items! Nine of ’em ! What man in Laid-
law is foolish enough to send in “ news” to the B B.? Why. man
alive, we had 91 items in the Chronicle, and they only had 41 in the
B. B., all told! Yep. and “ the little nine” (91 to 9) were among
them.

SPRINGER A SURE WINNER IN OLD CROOK.
T T is conceded even by republicans that G Springer, of Culver,
d this county, democratic nominee for state senator from this
district, will carry Crook county by a huge majority. It is also con­
ceded that he will poll a very heavy vote in both Lake and Klam­
ath counties, where he is now canvassing in the interest of his
candidacy, accompanied by his wife. He is an “out and out” advo.
cate for Statement No- 1. and the county’s interests are his inter­
ests. Should he be successful at the election to be held June I,
as seems probable, he will undoubtedly make the bjst senator this
district has ever had at Salem.
